XDC files installed

Your installation includes several XDC files that describe the more common printers used. Modify the XDC files if your printers require different configuration or are not supported by the XDC files that are included with your installation. In this case, you can use XDC Editor to create or modify XDC files to meet your requirements.

As your starting point, modify copies of the XDC files that are available from the AEM forms SDK.

The SDK includes sample and template XDC files. The sample XDC files are for specific types of printers. Template XDC files are for generic print description languages such as PostScript language level 2 or PCL 5c. After you customize an XDC file for your printer, you can store the file in the Adobe document services server or on a local hard drive.

注意: Using a tool other than XDC Editor to modify XDC files is not recommended. Undetected format or syntax errors in the XDC file can cause print problems that are difficult to diagnose, and the cache for an XDC file is not dynamically updated after the file is modified.
